You got this and welcome to the budgeting community! I am new too, so I COMPLETELY understand what your going through, but your taking the first step by at least making a plan and trying to have a better future. Even if you take small positive steps, it's better than nothing at all 🤎
So you don't feel the need to pay your family loan? Keep using that snowball method and maybe they'll get some money by 2040!
Just being blunt This is literally a typical American femaleSingle mother Several kids High debt Stay single fellas
Wouldn't it make more sense to consolidate the debt into one loan and only pay off that one loan vs all of this? Maybe you can get a better rate? I'm also thinking of ways to generate more income to pay the balance down faster. I feel ya, its so hard but you've got this.
Well done for making a start, I’ll subscribe to support your journey. Cant wait for your updates xx
I know this was hard for you to do, and I wish to encourage you the entire way. A suggestion would be to do a balance transfer on one of the cards and calculate what it would cost to pay it off in the 0% period. For example, your Chase card could be transferred over to a 0% card for 14 months (obviously, you want to be finished sooner), but by the time you've gotten to pay off that card with the snowball, you could dunk it. Use the lower payment with the balance transfer to pay off the debts ahead of it, and sink the amount due when you've reached that goal. Good luck!
Wow!😮😯😲 $1692 per month, min payments only!!
I love the way you explained everything! I loved listening to your beautiful accent! I learned from this video, good luck with your budget goal!
If you don’t care about keeping the credit cards open I know citi(I also think Best Buy is through citi too) has payment programs that allows you to take your balance owed and pay it off over 5 years bring your interest rate down to zero. That might be something to look in to. We had to do that when my husband lost his job when the pandemic started. Call them and see if they can get you in to that. I think it’s called a debt management program.
Should you not focus on the ones with the highest interest rates and work your way down? Rather than the lowest amounts and working up?
I love learning new ways to get read of my own bebt

Don’t despair… we are here to cheer you on every time you pay off one of those pesky debts! Keep your chin up as we cheer you on thru the finish line!
Hi Aria! Welcome and I look forward to following your journey ❤
New subscriber here! Welcome!!! ❤
Way to stay accountable, the only thing I would suggest is making at least a $20 payment a month to the family member who loaned you the money. 🤗
I hope u cut up all those cards n start to live on cash. Paying the minimum will take u 20-30 yrs to pay off if u don'r add anything more to them. So glad u are using the Ramsay method, this will really help u get them down n hopefully out of ur life forever, STAY STRONG
Welcome to the community 😍
I believe in you! I started working on my debt by originating a loan to pay off all my credit cards at once that way I could have only one monthly payment. That was easier said than done at first… I ended up with an additional 4K in debt at the end of 2021. January 2022 I put my foot down and started taking my budget super seriously. At first, I worked Door Dash in my spare time to help me pay down debt, but then I got a better paying job. I paid off over 20k this year and it feels amazing 🤩 it just takes paying off one card to get the snowball rolling. You got this
They say a dream without a plan is just a dream, and now you have a plan!!! ❤ way to go!!
Welcome! And can’t wait to take this ride with you!
The hardest part is writing it all down…now your plan starts
